B.A.T.s are totally artificial robotic troopers with extremely primitive logic circuits and very sophisticated targeting sensors. They can absorb enormous amounts of battle damage and still continue their missions as long as their trigger finger circuits are intact. B.A.T.s are usually deployed from low flying aircraft without use of parachutes. This delivery system is normally quite demoralizing to opposing troops who happen to witness it.
The new B.A.T.s, although upgraded in weapons systems, have been severely down-graded in logic and memory components, which have been deemed unnecessary for what is now a machine gun with legs. The basic model has three forward gears, no reverse option, and can be recharged from an ordinary household electrical outlet.
